Is it possible to install WP7 SDK on Windows 8 Release Preview? I tried using standard installation package but keep getting following error:
Installation Requirements:
KB2669191 does not apply, or is blocked by another condition on your
computer. Please see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=225649
for more details.
I installed WP7 SDK 7.1 but had some compatibily errors durring the instaa. Right now I can start VS2010 for WP7 but cannot build the solution because of following error:
The target "GetCopyToOutputDirectoryContentProjectItems" does not
exist in the project.
The following link gives the exact steps you need to perform in order to install and run WP7 sdk on windows 8 : WP7 Sdk on Windows 8
For development of XNA/WP7 on Win8:
Install Windows 8, then Visual Studio 2012, then Windows Phone 8 SDK, ensure windows updates are installed (as Nov 2012 had some great App Store updates). Then, port your XNA code across and create a new project to get the DLL references you need. The DLLs will exist in the Silverlight 4 folders but not to worry, it all works once you have WP8 SDK !! The emulator runs great too! This is the process for XNA code into VS2012 that works.
You can get the SDK from here:
https://dev.windowsphone.com/en-us/downloadsdk
NOTE: The XNA games will ONLY work on WP7 devices. You need MonoGame or similar to port to Win8 devices.
You should install WPSDK 7.1 first, before installing 7.1.1 Update. Check the Instructions at the bottom of the page.
see Installing Windows Phone SDK.
Update:
I have used the SDK's 7.1 and 7.1.1 from the above link and they are working fine in Windows 8.
Uninstall Windows Phone 7.1 RC SDK, then install 7.1 RTW SDK, and then the 7.1.1 SDK.
And every thing will be alright
this link for 7.1 RTW
and this for 7.1.1
Good Luck :)
This article finally did the trick. Hopefully posting it here will save someone from the nigh terrors ive been experiencing lol. The work around involves installing the xbox live marketplace and then installing the wp7 sdk and XNA will install normally.

this will get the warning error to go away. To fix the emulator problem you mus download the windows phone sdk 7.1.1 which is an update to the 7.1 sdk you were having problems installing
The error 'GetCopyToOutputDirectoryContentProjectItems' has been known to come from Silverlight, therefore I recommend you try to reinstall the Silverlight SDK on your machine.

Please go ahead and install windows 8 RTM now, after you install RTM ,Install Visual Studio 2012 and then WIndows Phone 8 SDK.now with this SDK , YOU CAN WORK ON WP7
as well as WP8
you can install sdk update 7.1.1 if you didn't.. It solved the problem for me
Download Windows Phone SDK 7.1.1 Update
This article solve my problem:

I just signed up for an Evernote API key and downloaded the Evernote SDK for Windows in Visual Studio 2015 (suing NuGet) only to be told "Evernote.SDK 1.25.0 is not compatible with uap10.0".... so it seems it only supports .Net v4.0 which is very disappointing. I had a great idea for a UWP app that I wanted to synch to Evernote but I guess now I can't do it.
In case you're not aware UWP (Universal Windows Platform) is now the standard for developing current and future Windows 10 apps that run across all W10 devices. Can anyone at Evernote tell me if the SDK will support this and if so when? More people already use Windows 10 than use iOS (on PC's and tablets at least) so I really hope this platform will be supported in the very near future.
From the 1.25 version number you mention, it sounds like you're trying to grab the older C# SDK. You can try the newer SDK for Windows and see if that works.
If that NuGet package also doesn't work in your UWP environment, you should be able to grab the source from Github and put that in your VS solution.
I'm developing an app using the Cordova tools for VS 2015 Enterprise. I would like to test my app on Windows Phone, but when I try to debug using the built in "device" option, I get these errors:
Does anyone know how to fix this? For reference, I'm using a Lumia 550, in developer mode, which is plugged in through USB to a computer running Windows 10 (with the latest version of VS and the Cordova tools). I looked in my services app, and IpOverUsbSvc is running already. I'm using the latest version of VS and my phone was updated to the latest version of WP10 today.
I have tried doing a hard reset on the phone, as well as using WPPT to deploy the app, both of which did not work.
This is a known issue for Insider Builds. Please see similar case here.
Please try rolling back to stable version (e.g. 10586).
You can use Windows Device Recovery Tools to roll back.
Will this tool work on phones running Insider Preview builds?
Yes. When you use this tool on a phone that's running a preview build, it will reinstall the latest version of Windows approved for your phone by its manufacturer.
I have a few problems that are driving me nuts.
I have the latest Windows 10 SDK (10586.212) and Emulator 10586.11. I have seen before (https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/downloads/sdk-archive) that the Emulator for 10586.212 is available too, so I download it.
All good till here. That the problem is when I want to install it it says I must uninstall the previous version 10586.11. Ok, no problem, I do it and re-run the install. And than it shows that it wants to install 10586.11 emulator again. Wtf ?
I was thinking it is just a typo error and press install, but no, it did install 10586.11. How can I get the emulator for 10586.212 ?
And another problem for Xamarin Studio. I installed xamarin tools and I have it in visual studio, but it didn't install xamarin studio ?
Thanks.
you should have to change settings of Hyper V. then try to install emulator it will working perfect.
I would like to build an application for universal application Windows 10 with Parse.com. But I only see SDK Parse.com for Windows and Windows phone v1.6. Please help me choose which SDK to build universal application Windows 10. Thanks so much.
Windows 10 (on desktop and phones) uses WinRT, just like Windows 8 did. So if you install the v1.6 of the SDK for Windows, it should work since it's targeting Windows 8.
Overall, I recommend you to add the Parse SDK to your application directly from Visual Studio by using NuGet. This way, you'll be absolutely sure to use a compatible version.
I downloaded Windows Phone SDK update for Windows Phone 7.8 and installed it. I however don't see these 2 new emulators they are talking about. Do I have to do something to get them.
I am on a windows 8 box, with both VS 2010 and Vs 2012 on it and neither show these emulators for 7.8. I just get to choose 7.0 and 7.1.
This is how it should look like after installing WP 7.8 SDK update.
Now, show us how it looks like in your VS. So that your problem is clearly understood.
Did you install, WP 7.1.1 Update before installing 7.8 update ?
And you said, its showing 7.0 and 7.1 ? where is it showing ? Microsoft stopped support for 7.0 devices few months back.
Note: Though this is not a real answer, I added it as an answer inorder to add the screen shot. Update your question with more details.
